Jason Iron was born and raised in New Orleans. He started life in foster care and by age twelve became affiliated with the local drug trafficking gang. Tired of the violence and inability to progress up the criminal hierarchy, he ran away to join the United States Navy as soon as he was old enough to enlist. Unfortunately, Jason was unused to strict regimens or being told what to do in any way shape or form. He found the system difficult and struggled with his commanding officers. An altercation with his peers led to his dishonorable discharge.

Without work, Iron came back to his home town and met the leader of a small group of thieves who specialized in auto and jewellery heists. It was during this time that he heard of V.I.L.E. and their capers throughout the world. Iron and his then partner secured a meeting with a V.I.L.E. recruiter, before things took a turn for the worst. In August of 2004, a hurricane would dismantle his group and many of the other city gang's strongholds. Jason was left to fend for himself once again and has drifted from organization to organization around the country to make ends meet.

Personality:

Although he looks gruff, Iron is extremely sensitive and may sometimes appear to be a slow thinker. Jason has a pet Chameleon named Argo who he keeps in his jacket pocket or shoulder, and to whom he seems to have coherent conversations with.
